If you haven't pre-ordered The LEGO Movie Videogame from Gamestop yet to get the exclusive Western Emmet minifigure 'cause he's just not doing it for you or for whatever reason, you have another option. Walmart is bundling the Robot DJ promotional minifigure with their pre-orders of The LEGO Movie Videogame for XBox 360 and Playstation 3. The games will ship for free and will be released this Friday February 7th.

The second way is to just go see the movie. If you're a member of their Stubs club, purchase a ticket for The LEGO Movie in 3D and you'll get the figure for free. The promotion period is this weekend only from February 7-9 or while supplies last.

If these are being distributed to a lot of people who really don't care that much about Lego I think we'll be seeing a lot on ebay (Similar to other exclusives). I'd like to have one of these, and weighing my options I'm starting to think that ebay may be the cheapest and easiest way to get one.

25 miles or so for me, but not worth the added cost. And while I see the enjoyment of the LEGO games, I've found two things to be true in my previous purchases: a) I do not enjoy them for very long and b) I am absolutely terrible at them.

Generally, these sorts of promotions settle into a 15-20 range on the aftermarket. Even counting the various promos out there, I can still get them for about the cost of the game overall, so that's the route I'll probably go.

Having gone to great lengths to preorder Lego Marvel from Walmart in Canada to get the promo fig only to discover I could have walked in and bought it off the shelf, that's what I'll be doing tomorrow.

OK, so I got a little more info. Regal membership cards are free, where AMC reward cards are $12. AMC will let you sign-up at theater checkout to get the figure. Because the regal card was free I signed up for it last night and picked one up on way home, so I have no idea if Regal will let you sign-up at the time of purchase. (Though I have to believe they must)

Also I stopped by both AMC and Regal today. (Luckily I work in NYC and both are in walking distance). Both had the figures, but in very small boxes so I'm doubtful how long supplies will last.

Personally getting the couple figures was a little bit of a pain, and if I actually had to drive to get these, I would probably have just gone the ebay route and paid a little extra.

eBay store, contact me if you'd like to perform trades from my inventory. I'm looking for original genosian fighers, second version a-wing fighters and tie bombers. I may be interested in other sets so let me know what you have.
